Some text here about the topic of discussion

​Examples of Physical Change include: Melting Point & Shape

Physical Changes​ can be caused by changes in energy ​

Chemical Change: a change that creates a NEW material. (a change in chemical properties)

​

The orginial materials are changed into something different.

​

Typically irreversible

​

Com​mon examples include: digestion, respiration, photosynthesis, burning, and decomposition.
